Over 140 suspended opposition MPs led by Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge held a protest march from Parliament to Vijay Chowk on Thursday against their mass suspension. Carrying "Save Democracy" banners, the MPs accused the ruling BJP of undermining democracy after passing three crucial bills this week in the absence of most opposition voices. The opposition condemned their large-scale suspension, claimed democracy has been "expelled" from Parliament, and demanded accountability from the BJP over last week's security breach controversy that triggered the suspensions. The dramatic scenes underline deepening political tensions between a defiant opposition and the government.
